Abstract
AbstractThis policy analysis reviews the shared authority provisions between the American Red Cross and FEMA in ESF‐6 of the U.S. National Response Framework (NRF), which covers mass care, housing, and human services. The shared authority base in place prior to Hurricane Katrina contributed to confusion during the response in 2005. FEMA rewrote ESF‐6 in 2008; the role of FEMA and the American Red Cross under this policy continues to be reviewed at the federal level. This study evaluates policy options related to ESF‐6 authority issues using Patton and Sawicki's (1993) policy analysis framework.
